25 Outdoor Summer Activities for Kids

May 30, 2015 by Ashley

25 Outdoor Summer Activities for KIDS!

 

My kids are OUT OF SCHOOL!!!!  Are yours? (I hope so…)  We are VERY ready for summer.  Especially a little break from a rigid routine…….because lazy mornings, lots of sunshine, and a little spontaneity is exactly what we need around here.  And let’s be honest, I was really ready for a little break from the Pick Up/Drop Off lane at the school.  Egads….that line of cars drives me nuts!

 

Anyway, I was just gathering ideas of outdoor activities I could do with my kids…..and I found some really fun stuff!  And most things don’t cost much, if anything, at all.

 

Need some ideas too??
